Collaborative law process featured in business section of Star-Ledger newspaper

By dvanar

The business section of the Star-Ledger newspaper has a recurring feature entitled “Shop Talk” which usually contains a short news story highlighting a local business or community event. In the November 6^th edition of the newspaper, Shop Talk featured a short article on the newly-formed Central Jersey Collaborative Law Group and briefly described the collaborative divorce process. As stated in the article,

Collaborative divorce is a state of-the-art approach in which a multidisciplinary team is brought together to facilitate a divorce. Rather than the traditional model of divorce, in which opposing attorneys are adversaries in court litigation, a collaborative divorce utilizes a team approach to achieve settlement without ever going to court, while maintaining civility and facilitating good communication?

Those who learn about the process often agree that collaborative divorce truly is ?a new and better way.?
